This is awesome! It's the first true connect the dots to come out of our politico-legal system. It was an insurrection, there are consequences, and the consequences will be applied, not swept aside. Excellent!

This was the best news I've heard thus far about holding political figures who participated in the insurrection, accountable. Let this be just the beginning, there are several others who should be removed and even more who should be prosecuted as well.

What do we have to do to get Francis Mathew on the U.S. Supreme Court?

Hooray for New Mexico, The First State to declare the Constitution the seat of all Law. Also kudos to the Judge Francis Mathew for putting REAL meaning into the oath to the Constitution. I have long held that all Oaths to the Constitution should be sworn on the Constitution. I also think we should pledge allegiance to the Constitution. New Mexico can stand proud.

I wouldn't bat an eye if >this< SCOTUS didn't try striking down the 14th Amendment because it wasn't part of the original Constitution! These clowns are pervs; and never underestimate the power of pervs interpreting law on the SCOTUS - or >any< court!
